marriage broker

After pleading with her husband, Sahar was allowed to visit her parents once, under supervision of the marriage broker – her cousin’s husband.

She told me that her cousin’s husband worked as a marriage broker and arranged her marriage with a man in Haryana.

Polatkin nodded and turned to the examination of a pile of monthly statements by way of dismissing the marriage broker.

So my father, at the age of sixteen and a half, lent a willing ear to the cooing voice of the marriage broker.

At the same time the marriage broker proposed another match; and my father's poor cousins bristled with importance once more.

His name was Steiner, and he set himself up in business as an international marriage broker.

Perhaps this scheming marriage-broker had shed her worldly scales under the stress of emotion.
